Gut instinct, nothing more. He admitted in the summer he'll only be at 70% from now on and he was poor against Chelsea and Burnley. Don't see where he fits in our side now other then an effective sub.
He was the best player on the pitch vs Chelsea. You sure you watched the match?
Interesting theory mate, and I have no desire to start a cunt off, but your completely and utterly wrong. He played brilliantly against Chelsea and is probably our most important player. I thought everyone knew that. . .:dembelewtf:
Time to put the shambles of the EL meeting right.....this game with a full strength Spurs is another kettle of fish.
If they take us lightly with the last meeting in their heads they will come unstuck.
I think this is where Wembley will show its might......in the night under the lights against big oppo in the CL.
Hopefully a good performance, a win, and some home momentum off the back of it. Cant wait.

It'd be highly disappointing if we started with Trippier. We NEED to go in strong. Aurier is our best right back. He needs to start. It's harsh on Sissoko too but Dembele/Dier is our best available line up. I do wonder if Sissoko may get a go instead of Dele though.
My heart says a 2-1 win but my head says 1-1, which wouldn't be the best result at all.
A win would be so good considering we have APOEL next and a potential 6 points from the opening 2 games puts us in a GREAT position (especially if Madrid go on to win their opening 2)
Need to attack down the right. Their left side has a few injuries.
Schurrle and Reus in attack and Schmelzer and Guerreiro at left back.

Although I agree with you that aurier should start, I can see poch starting trips just because he knows him better. I really really really want aurier to start but poch loves to "bed" people in a lot.
I think aurier is so important, if he comes in and hits the ground running it could make our season. We need someone with pace that hugs the touch line, can beat a player and also hit a good cross. From what little I've seen aurier does all of those things, he seems to have the crossing ability of trips, with the pace of walker (slightly slower) but then is better at defending then both of them.
You are right sir, my apologies.
Son in for Dele then. Unless we see a 4231 with Son, Eriksen and Sissoko behind Kane?
I'd put money on Llorente playing in place of Son due to his experience.
